Quinacridone Gold (No. 411)
â“‹Â VEGAN
Organic – My Quinacridone Gold is made from nickel azo and quinacridone. It is organic, transparent, and has an average drying time. It also possesses excellent lightfastness and high tint power. This is a rich, amber, golden yellow that is transparent and ideal for glazing or mixing to produce interesting hues. Its shift from mass tone to undertone is pronounced, with a rich, transparent orange-brown. It’s beautiful, perfect in every way, particularly for artists who enjoy glazing or just having a crazy time with colour. You might find yourself in rehab to cure your addiction to it. Perhaps I should put a health warning on the tube—Quinacridone Gold: Danger! Addictive! I myself am particularly fond of Quinacridone Gold and often wonder what the Old Masters would have thought of the marvellous colours we have today. If I could go back in time, I’d ask Mr. Turner what he thought of Quinacridone Gold. I’d enjoy seeing how he might have used Quinacridone Gold in The Fighting Temeraire or one of his other paintings with a glowing sky.
